    Let me explain the joke: The G stands for the gravitational constant because you are falling; also God, Gnosis, Gaia. ROUND stands for the curvature of the Earth that you can see from up there. C U stands for the Earth (Gaia) greeting you, implyinv you will meet up in MINimal time.

    Kinda triggered by this post. My father had that happen to him for his 99th jump on a Friday the 13th. He considers that his lucky day because most parachutes have a backup parachute which he got to use that day for the first time.

    So no, skydivers just look for their parachute after it failed to open properly and they had to deploy the backup because those things are fucking expensive.
